  • the present invention relates to a lithium ion capacitor comprising a positive electrode, a negative electrode and an aprotic organic solvent electrolytic solution of a lithium salt as an electrolyte.
  • the lithium ion secondary battery is a so-called rocking chair battery such that after it is assembled, lithium ions are supplied from the lithium-containing metal oxide as the positive electrode to the negative electrode by charging the battery, and the lithium ions in the negative electrode are returned to the positive electrode by discharging the battery, and is characterized by having a high voltage, a large capacity and high safety.
  • lithium ion secondary battery As such a new electrical storage device, attention has been paid to the above lithium ion secondary battery and an electric double layer capacitor.
  • a lithium ion secondary battery Although a lithium ion secondary battery has a high energy density, it still has problems in output characteristics, safety and cycle life.
  • an electric double layer capacitor has been used as a memory backup power source for IC or LSI, but the discharge capacity per charge is small as compared with a battery.
  • it is maintenance-free and has high output characteristics which the lithium ion secondary battery does not have, such as excellent instantaneous charge and discharge characteristics and durability against charge and discharge for several tens of thousands cycles or more.
  • an energy density of a conventional electric double layer capacitor usually ranges from about 3 to about 4 Wh/l, which is lower than by two orders than that of a lithium ion secondary battery.
  • an energy density of from 6 to 10 Wh/l is required for practical use and an energy density of 20 Wh/l for wide spread use.
  • a hybrid capacitor As an electrical storage device to be used for such an application which requires a high energy density and high output characteristics, attention has been paid to an electrical storage device also called a hybrid capacitor comprising a combination of storage principles of a lithium ion secondary battery and an electric double layer capacitor in recent years.
  • a hybrid capacitor usually employs a polarized electrode for the positive electrode and a non-polarized electrode for the negative electrode, and attracts attention as an electrical storage device having both high energy density of a battery and high output characteristics of an electric double layer capacitor.
  • Patent Documents 1 to 4 a hybrid capacitor has been proposed (Patent Documents 1 to 4) in which a negative electrode capable of absorbing and desorbing lithium ions is brought into contact with lithium metal so that lithium ions are preliminarily made to be absorbed and supported (hereinafter sometimes referred to as doping) by the negative electrode by a chemical or electrochemical method to lower the negative electrode potential, thereby to increase the withstand voltage and to significantly increase the energy density.
  • Such a hybrid capacitor is expected to shoe high performance, but has drawbacks such that when the negative electrode is doped with lithium ions, the doping requires a very long time, and it tends to be difficult to uniformly dope the entire negative electrode. Particularly, the doping is practically impossible to be carried out a large-size large capacity cell such as a cylindrical apparatus having electrodes wound or a rectangular battery having a plurality of electrodes laminated.
  • Patent Document 5 an invention such that the entire negative electrodes in the cell can be doped with lithium ions only by disposing lithium metal at the end of the cell, by forming pores penetrating from the front surface to the back surface on each of a negative electrode current collector and a positive electrode current collector so that lithium ions can move via the through pores, and further, by short circuiting the lithium metal as a lithium ion supply source and the negative electrode.
  • Patent Document 5 discloses to conduct similarly the doping on the positive electrode together with the negative electrode or instead of the negative electrode.
  • a lithium ion capacitor according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from EP 1 400 996 A1 .
  • the present inventors have conducted extensive studies and as a result, found the following. Namely, in a lithium ion capacitor wherein a negative electrode and/or a positive electrode is preliminarily doped with lithium ions so that the potentials of the positive electrode and the negative electrode are at most 2.0 V after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited, physical properties of an aprotic organic solvent electrolyte solution of a lithium salt to be used closely relate to durability of the obtained capacitor, and the above object can be achieved by incorporating vinylene carbonate or its derivative in the electrolytic solution preferably in an amount of at most 5 wt%.
  • the present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this discovery.
  • the present invention provides the following.
  • a particularly large capacity lithium ion capacitor wherein a negative electrode and/or a positive electrode is preliminarily doped with lithium ions, which has a high energy density and a high output density and further has a high capacity retention during continuous charging at a high temperature and is excellent in durability, is provided.
  • the mechanism how a capacitor has a high energy density and a high output density and further has an improved capacity retention during continuous charging at a high temperature, by incorporating vinylene carbonate in the above electrolytic solution is not necessarily clearly understood but is estimated as follows.
  • Vinylene carbonate has a high reductive decomposition potential and dominates the reductive decomposition on the negative electrode and forms a stable and high quality surface coating film, and thereby suppresses decomposition of other solvents.
  • vinylene carbonate undergoes reductive decomposition to form a coating film on the negative electrode in the initial charging, but since vinylene carbonate has a low oxidation potential, oxidative decomposition on the positive electrode occurs simultaneously, thus causing a problem such as evolution of gas.
  • the positive electrode potential will not increase during the doping, but only the negative electrode potential decreases, whereby no oxidative decomposition of vinylene carbonate on the positive electrode will occur.
  • the positive electrode potential will not increase during the doping, but only the negative electrode potential decreases, whereby no oxidative decomposition of vinylene carbonate on the positive electrode will occur.
  • only formation of a coating film by the reductive decomposition on the negative electrode will occur without any problem such as evolution of gas.
  • the lithium ion capacitor of the present invention comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode and an aprotic organic electrolytic solution of a lithium salt as an electrolytic solution, wherein a positive electrode active material is a material capable of reversively supporting lithium ions and/or anions, and a negative electrode active material is a material capable of reversively supporting lithium ions.
  • a positive electrode active material is a material capable of reversively supporting lithium ions and/or anions
  • a negative electrode active material is a material capable of reversively supporting lithium ions.
  • the "positive electrode” means an electrode on the side where a current flows out at the time of discharge
  • the "negative electrode” means an electrode on the side where a current flows in at the time of discharge.
  • the potential of the positive electrode is at most 2.0 V after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited by doping of the negative electrode and/or the positive electrode with lithium ions.
  • the potentials of the positive electrode and the negative electrode are both 3 V, and the potential of the positive electrode is 3 V after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited.
  • the potential of the positive electrode being at most 2.0 V after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited means a potential of the positive electrode of at most 2.0 V as obtained by either of the following two methods (A) and (B). That is, (A) after doping with lithium ions, a positive electrode terminal and a negative electrode terminal of a capacitor cell are directly connected by a conducting wire and the capacitor is left to stand for at least 12 hours in such a state, and then the short circuit is released, and the positive electrode potential is measured within from 0.5 to 1.5 hours, (B) after discharging to 0 V at a constant current over a period of at least 12 hours by a charge and discharge testing apparatus, a positive electrode terminal and a negative electrode terminal are connected by a conducting wire and the capacitor is left to stand for at least 12 hours in such a state, and then the short circuit is released, and the positive electrode potential is measured within from 0.5 to 1.5 hours.
  • the positive electrode potential being at most 2.0 V after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited is not limited only to the potential immediately after doping with lithium ions, but means a positive electrode potential of at most 2.0 V after short circuit in any state, i.e. short circuit in a charged state, in a discharged state or after repeated charging and discharging.
  • the positive electrode potential being at most 2.0 V after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited, will be described in detail below.
  • an activated carbon and a carbon material usually have a potential at a level of 3 V (Li/Li + ).
  • both potentials are about 3 V, the positive electrode potential will be unchanged and about 3 V even when the electrodes are short-circuited.
  • the positive electrode potential will be unchanged and about 3 V even when the electrodes are short-circuited.
  • the negative electrode potential will move to the vicinity of 0 V by charge although it depends on the balance of positive electrode and negative electrode weights, and it is thereby possible to increase the charging voltage, whereby a capacitor having a high voltage and a high energy density will be obtained.
  • the upper limit of the charging voltage is determined to be a voltage at which no decomposition of the electrolytic solution by an increase of the positive electrode potential will occur.
  • the positive electrode potential when the positive electrode potential is at the upper limit, it is possible to increase the charging voltage correspondingly to a decrease of the negative electrode potential.
  • the upper limit potential of the positive electrode is 4.0 V for example, the positive electrode potential at the time of discharge is limited to 3.0 V, and the change in the potential of the positive electrode is at 1.0 V and the capacity of the positive electrode can not sufficiently be utilized.
  • the initial charge and discharge efficiency is low in many cases, and some lithium ions can not be released at the time of discharging.
  • the charge and discharge efficiency of the negative electrode tends to be low as compared with the charge and discharge efficiency of the positive electrode, and thus the positive electrode potential will be higher than 3 V when the cell is short-circuited after charging and discharging are repeatedly carried out, and the utilization of the capacity will further decrease. That is, if the positive electrode is discharged only from 4.0 V to 3.0 V even if it is possible to be discharged from 4.0 V to 2.0 V, only half the capacity is utilized, and the capacitor can not have a large capacity although it may have a high voltage.
  • the positive electrode potential after the short circuit is lower than 3.0 V
  • the utilization of the capacity will increase correspondingly, and a large capacity will be achieved.
  • the positive electrode potential will be at most 2.0 V
  • the lithium ions are supplied other than from the positive electrode and the negative electrode, potentials of the positive electrode, the negative electrode and lithium metal are in equilibrium and at most 3.0 V when the positive and negative electrodes are shortcircuited.
  • the larger the amount of lithium metal the lower the equilibrium potential.
  • the equilibrium potential changes depending upon the negative electrode material and the positive electrode material, it is required to adjust the amount of lithium ions to be supported by the negative electrode considering characteristics of the negative electrode material and the positive electrode material so that the positive electrode potential after short circuit will be at most 2.0 V.
  • the utilized capacity of the positive electrode will be high, whereby a high capacity will be achieved, and a high energy density will be obtained.
  • the larger the amount of lithium ions supplied the lower the positive electrode potential after the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited and the more the energy density will improve. In order to obtain a further higher energy density, at most 1.5 V is preferred, and particularly at most 1.0 V is more preferred.
  • the positive electrode potential will be higher than 2.0 V when the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited, and the energy density of the cell tends to be low. Further, if the positive electrode potential after short circuit is less than 1.0 V, drawbacks such as evolution of gas or irreversible consumption of lithium ions may occur depending upon the positive electrode active material, and it tends to be difficult to measure the positive electrode potential. Further, a too low positive electrode potential means an excessive weight of the negative electrode, and the energy density will rather decrease. It is usually at least 0.1 V, preferably at least 0.3 V.
  • one of or both the negative electrode and the positive electrode may be doped with lithium ions.
  • an activated carbon is used for the positive electrode for example, if the amount of lithium ions doped is large and the positive electrode potential is low, lithium ions may be irreversibly consumed, and drawbacks such as a decrease in the capacity of the cell may occur in some cases.
  • doping with lithium ions is conducted preferably on the negative electrode since it makes the process complicated to control the amount of doping the positive electrode and the amount of doping the negative electrode.
  • a high voltage and large capacity capacitor will be obtained particularly when the capacitance per unit weight of the negative electrode active material is at least three times the capacitance per unit weight of the positive electrode active material and when the weight of the positive electrode active material is larger than the weight of the negative electrode active material.
  • a negative electrode having a large capacitance per unit weight relative to the capacitance per unit weight of the positive electrode it becomes possible to reduce the negative electrode active material weight without changing the change in potential of the negative electrode, whereby the amount of the positive electrode active material charged tends to increase, whereby the capacitance and the capacity of the cell can be increased.
  • the positive electrode active material weight is preferably larger than the negative electrode active material weight, and it is more preferably from 1.1 times to 10 times. If it is less than 1.1 times, the difference in capacity with an electric double layer capacitor tends to be small, and if it exceeds 10 times, the capacity may be small on the contrary in some cases, and the difference in thickness between the positive electrode and the negative electrode will be too significant, and such is unfavorable in view of the cell structure.
  • the capacitance and the capacity of the capacitor cell are defined as follows.
  • the capacitance of a cell represents the electrical quantity applied to the cell per unit voltage of the cell (slope of the discharge curve) and its unit is F (farad).
  • the capacitance per unit weight of a cell is a value obtained by dividing the capacitance of the cell by a total weight of the positive electrode active material and the negative electrode active material in the cell and its unit is F/g.
